Wilderness

Several weeks ago, I told someone that it feels as if I am standing somewhere in the desert wilderness, alone and dwarfed by unnavigable emptiness and windless silence.

Others would no doubt describe the experience differently. I can offer only a little of my own truth about it. I can tell only parts of my own story. I can say only: This is some of what it is like for me in the year after the one in which my son died.

There is unmatched beauty and majesty in the desert...it is just a kind of beauty that few can recognize or appreciate. Your choice of photo hints you are one of the few...

I finally made the time to visit your new site. My hope is to travel this year with you. Our travels together at our blogs have meant much too me. My prayers for you have been consistent as they are my hope for all... a life filled with Peace, Joy, Hope and Love. This year and the next, and into eternity.
